Leonard looked to be in mid-season form over his first three games of the preseason for San Antonio. Though he has not logged many minutes, his scoring in the amount of time played is pretty frightening for teams around the league.
- 17 points, 6-for-10 field goals, in 20 minutes against the Suns
- 14 points, 6-for-13 field goals, in 25 minutes against the Hawks
- 20 points, 7-for-11 field goals, in 24 minutes against the Pistons
In the first half, Spurs basketball was alive as they possessed what makes them one of the leagues best, ball movement.
